Far Cry 4 To Be Set In The Himalayas

Far Cry 3 was a great game, somehow more than the sum of its parts. It arguably elevated the series higher than it had ever been and so the yearning for a sequel was greater than ever. Fresh rumours of Far Cry4 suggest that you hold some reserve.

Industry insider Superannuation beleievs the game will be set in the Himalayas although it will be little more than Far Cry 3 with a change of setting. That is a bold claim for a rumour and for a game that hasn’t even been announced yet. However, he has a good track record with the rumour mill. Believe what you want to really.

The claim follows rumours that Far Cry 4 is currently in development over at Ubisoft Shanghai, according to the LinkedIn CV of one employee.

Originally intended as a DM, Superannuation leaked the rumour on twitter.

Far Cry 4 sounds super boring from the rumors. It’s the third game more or less transposed to the Himalayas or adjacent locale + monsters(?)

Ubisoft has already explored tropical jungles and deserts in Far Cry so why not snow? That bit seems pretty plausible but as for monsters… well that could go either way really. Of coyrse, who goes to the Himalayas without saying hi to a yeti?
